It's because right wing people are simping for and sticking up for Israel, and the IDF. Notice how in the Article it's LibsOfTikTok who's calling out the game and encouraging its removal from Steam?

Edit: For people not in the know LibsOfTikTok is an alt-right American internet personality, and also apparently a news curator now. They push a lot of anti-trans hate and alt-right talking points on Twitter, and they're probably a terrorist too.
